Going to be a miss for us too this year....

Police just shot ( hour or two ago) a bear in Mountainside Park in Burlington. Unfortunate and sad, in my humble opinion.....don't beat me too bad guys I know some of you have differing thoughts.

Thanks Simon for the nice tribute and the memories. Both Moms are gone now but they are still dear to our hearts. As Wayne said they are all celebrating with Angel cake and looking down on us smiling...

Sounds like a perfect weekend Hope you had a great one Art.. J...

Have a great day Joey, Happy Birthday and an awesome Mothers Day... J...

I am biased as Cannon, Humminbird, Minnkota companies are clients of mine. My choice based on service, price and overall usability would be Scotty though.......don't tell anyone.

Joe, in general terms I agree with you 100%. Nothing frustrates me more than a radar trap pulling car after car for 25 or 30 over and completely ignoring the idiots who tailgate, weave in and out and put the rest of our lives and those of our loved ones in danger. It's easier.........that simple. But, jedimaster, what about the person at a stoplight texting away? They are in most cases completely oblivious to what it going on around them and the fact that their vehicle is in "drive" and their foot on the brake completely absent from their mind. How much lack of concentration does it take to relax the foot on the brake and run over the person crossing in front of you......or texting away as the light turns green and someone behind you lays on the horn.......you stomp on the gas and run into the car in front........seen it more than once. Is the act of picking up a text message or IM at a stoplight dangerous, YES, absolutely no question about it. I have clients all over the world, some of whom want to tear off a piece of my a$$ at the most inconvenient time. Do i talk on the phone in the car, absolutely, fully hands free with auto answer, but I never answer an IM or text in the car whether I am stationary or moving. I am of the opinion that there is a huge difference.

Go on guys, I double dog dare ya!

They are amazing shots Mike...

Nice B..ass she got there boss. Hopefully you don't get beaten on by those that don't know the reg's up there.... Counselling doesn't help........you are resigned to a life of mockery and shame...

I think Chris (Spiel) may be booked for a couple of months, but hey take your rods down with a case of beer and who knows..

Google it and see how they are raised,.......don't think you will eat it again.

Hope that you Dan and the girls have a great time.........sorry I couldn't be there.

Thanks boss, really good pertinent reminder..

In the sand..........

Well said x 2. We owe it to the resource to support our fellow fishermen and in this case provide a friendly reminder, preferably by PM. Rather can calling out the person that made the OP in front of all of his or her peers! I don't post on here much anymore tired of getting my chewed..........

And to think I used to like you.............

Very cute pup Brian...very lucky dog!

Congrat's Nick, sure looks like a strong hook set to me!

There is a Bass Pro in Auburn NY. Also Gander Mountain just off either 290 or 190, Google it.......

Pretty cool Chris...........I'm still thinking about that CTS blank. Thought you might have done the pink though, it would have matched his eyes!........

Dang Roy, I think that is only second time I have seen you without the hat! Great stuff guys, glad a great time was had by all. Sorry I couldn't get to say hi.

Mike I would not go past Canon on Panasonic. Had Sony too but never has as good results. I am currently using a Panasonic Lumix DMC and it probably the best picture (for a dummy like me) that I have seen. Check out comparisons here www.dpreview.com John

You are a sick man Simon....stop teasing us and just send the freakin' report when you get home.
